Project | Get started in the classroom with Docs and Takeoff
Use Docs and Takeoff for quantification in these engaging exercises for students.
Module overview
This series of exercises introduce students to quantification projects for estimating in Autodesk Takeoff using 2D sheets and 3D models. The datasets used in the exercises include Revit files and other supporting files (in both imperial and metric units), with instruction on working in a classroom environment administered by the teacher*.
Teaching supplements for teachers include a getting started guide to Autodesk Construction Cloud and an answer key to the student exercises and quiz questions.
*Note that if you are not in a classroom environment, you can still follow along with the included datasets in the module downloads section.
